Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

Before the roar had subsided, a huge figure burst out from the crack.

The figure was about ten thousand feet tall, shaped like a giant sheep, and entirely black.

Its entire body was covered in jet-black scales, each scale with innate Dao patterns flowing around it, radiating a terrifying devouring power.

Above the head, a pair of blood-red eyes, as large as lanterns, were staring intently at the chaos.

In those eyes, there was greed, excitement, and even a hint of undisguised killing intent.

Taotie.

The leader of the four ferocious beasts.

The Primordial Golden Immortal.

Early stage of the Nine Heavens.

It burst out of the crack and fell into the chaos, its pitch-black body suspended in the void.

His blood-red eyes swept across the chaos, across the shocking wound, and across the disordered aura.

His lips slowly parted to reveal gleaming white fangs.

"chaos."

The Taotie opened its mouth, its voice as cold as ancient ice, yet filled with barely suppressed excitement:

"You've got some nerve."

"How dare you show up alone on my territory."

"Do you really think that because you have divine protection, I wouldn't dare to touch you?"

Chaos lowered its body, its voice hoarse:

"Taotie, I'm just passing by."

Why are you being so aggressive?

Taotie sneered:

"Just passing by?"

"Do you take me for a three-year-old?"

"I can clearly smell the primal aura emanating from you."

"Seventh Heaven, Perfection."

"By devouring you, I can break through to the mid-stage of the Ninth Heaven."

Even if it were a god who defied the heavens, he would still have to give me some face.

As soon as the sound faded, the Taotie began to move.

Its jet-black body, like a black mountain, crushed down on the chaos!

Ten thousand miles of empty space, arrived in an instant!

Its gaping maw opened wide, and the power of devouring materialized on its stark white fangs!

That bite, even if it's from the eighth level of the Heavenly Realm, would severely injure you!

Chaos's face turned deathly pale.

It wanted to escape.

But it cannot escape.

Because Master has given orders to lure the Taotie to the designated location.

Because Master has given orders to keep Taotie completely away from the Xuanji Heavenly Domain.

Because Master has given orders that Shenni should no longer be able to sense any movement here.

Chaos gritted its teeth.

Instead of retreating, it advanced, rushing towards the depths of chaos!

Taotie sneered:

"run?"

"Do you think you can escape?"

It relentlessly pushes the source, relentlessly pursuing it.

Two figures, one black and one chaotic, sped through the chaos.

Wanli.

Ten thousand miles.

Millions of miles.

The distance from the Xuanji Heavenly Domain is getting farther and farther.

Chaos sped along, occasionally looking back, its blood-red eyes filled with terror.

His fear was convincingly feigned.

It was as if the gluttonous beast behind it was about to devour it at any moment.

The Taotie followed behind it, its black scales surging with devouring power.

Greed grew ever stronger in his bloodshot eyes.

The origin of the Seven Heavens' perfection.

If you swallow it, you will reach the mid-stage of the Ninth Heaven.

Even the gods dared not underestimate it.

Even the king of ferocious beasts had to treat it with utmost respect.

"Chaos, you can't escape."

The Taotie opened its mouth, its voice as cold as ancient ice:

"It's your good fortune to obediently let me swallow you."

Chaos gritted his teeth and remained silent.

He simply activated his source power with all his might, rushing towards the depths of chaos.

A long time passed.

The chaos finally stopped.

Its enormous body hung suspended in the chaos, its blood-red eyes fixed intently ahead.

There, the chaotic energy surged like a tide, and the chaotic winds raged like knives.

Yet amidst that turbulence, there was a deathly silence.

An eerie, deathly silence.

"This is it."

Chaos spoke, its voice trembling:

"Taotie, if you wish to devour me, then come and do so."

The gluttonous beast's blood-red eyes scanned its surroundings, and its divine sense surged forth like a tide.

Inch by inch.

Foot by foot.

One zhang at a time.

It searches carefully.

But I couldn't find anything.

Only chaos.

Endless chaos.

Taotie frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in its blood-red eyes.

"Chaos, why did you come here?"

Chaos gritted its teeth:

"I was just passing by."

"If you want to devour me, I can't escape even if I run to the ends of the earth."

"Let's find a quiet place and end things here."

Upon hearing this, Taotie let out a cold laugh.

"To settle things?"

"You?"

"The Seventh Heaven, you dare to challenge me?"

As soon as the sound faded, the Taotie began to move.

Its jet-black body, like a black mountain, crushed down on the chaos!

Ten thousand miles of empty space, arrived in an instant!

Its gaping maw opened wide, and the power of devouring materialized on its stark white fangs!

With that one bite, Chaos would surely perish!

Chaos stared at the approaching black mountain, his blood-red eyes filled with despair.

It wanted to escape.

It can't move.

The oppressive force of the nine heavens pressed down on it as if it were a tangible reality.

It makes it difficult for it to even move.

It could only close its eyes and wait for death.

Just now.

"Buzz".

The void rippled silently.

A figure in green robes slowly materialized from the void.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his blue robe fluttering slightly, and his black hair flowing over his shoulders.

Within the palm of his hand, a chaotic light flowed ceaselessly.

Xuandu.

He landed behind Taotie, no more than a thousand feet away.

Those eyes, calm as an ancient well, were quietly watching the Taotie.

Taotie sensed it.

It turned its head sharply, its bloodshot eyes filled with disbelief.

someone!

When?

It was completely unaware!

"Who are you!"

The Taotie growled, its voice filled with rage.

Xuan Du looked at it and smiled slightly.

The smile was faint, yet it carried a profound understanding that saw through everything.

"The Intercepting Sect, Xuandu."

The five words fell like a thunderclap.

The Taotie's pupils contracted slightly.

Jie Sect?

Xuandu?

never heard of that.

But it sensed it.

Sensing that the figure in blue robes before them possessed terrifying power sufficient to challenge them.

The Primordial Golden Immortal.

Eight Heavens.

Moreover, its foundation is solid, its aura is profound, and there is not a trace of superficiality.

It wasn't a forced increase in cultivation level.

It's not a realm built up from elixirs.

It's a foundation built solidly, through every punch and kick.

The gluttonous beast's blood-red eyes gleamed.

It glanced at Xuandu, then at Chaos.

Suddenly I understood.

"chaos!"

It roared, its voice hoarse like a vengeful ghost:

"You have betrayed our Emperor!"

"You colluded with outsiders to set a trap for me!"

Chaos opened his eyes, his blood-red pupils filled with complex emotions.

"Taotie"

It spoke, its voice deep:

"I'm sorry."

"My master has given the order, and I cannot disobey."

Upon hearing this, Taotie trembled violently.

Master?

Chaos called this person his master?

Has it already become an apprentice?

His blood-red eyes were filled with boundless rage.

"good!"

"good!"

"good!"

It roared three times, its sound reverberating across billions of miles of chaos:

"Chaos, how dare you betray my Emperor!"

"You're asking for it!"

As soon as the sound faded, the Taotie began to move.

It abandoned the chaos and rushed towards Xuandu!

The gaping maw opened wide, and the power of devouring solidified into a tangible form!

That bite, even if it's from the eighth level of the Heavenly Realm, would severely injure you!

Xuan Du stared at the approaching black mountain, his expression unchanged.

He did not back down.

They didn't hide.

He simply raised his hand.

A thought subtly stirred within me.

Deep within the Purple Palace between the eyebrows, the Chaos Pearl shone brightly!

A beam of chaotic light burst forth from the pearl, shining directly at the Taotie!

Where the beam of light passed, the chaotic energy did not shatter, but was solidified!

The raging chaotic gales melted away silently as soon as they touched the edge of the pillar of light!

The vast expanse of space, spanning billions of miles, submitted to that pillar of light!

Taotie's pupils suddenly contracted!

It sensed it.

That beam of light contained a terrifying power that could pull it into another world.

It was not an attack.

It is a collection.

It was suppression.

It's a seal.
